1810 tasting notes

I’ve been wanting to try this for quite awhile (Pineapple, caramel chai? Count me in.). I haven’t had huge success with other T2 blends, so was hesitant to pay full price. I recently saw that a giftset with this, Chiang Mai Chai, 2 cups, and a steeper went on sale for a verrrry reasonable price, so I went for it. Unfortunately, I find this pretty undrinkable. No pineapple. No caramel. It’s extremely spicy (not so much from the cinnamon, more from the pepper), and although there is no licorice root listed on the ingredients, I’m getting a strong licorice flavor.

Yikes, that does sound bad!

That’s disappointing – I’ve also not had a lot of success with T2 blends, but this is one that actually really intrigued me despite that…

I wonder what the licorice root taste is from? None of the ingredients have comparable flavours unless it’s from the flavouring itself…

I’m really not sure where it’s coming from, but my guess is also the flavoring. But, my tastebuds could also be playing tricks on me.
